SF3 and Nights
Guys, I felt so relieved last night when I FINALLY got my first Saturn game working (well, "working" may not be the right word"), on *Satourne 1.1p*: Shining Force 3. In addition, Nights into Dreams took me to character selection. Here are the screenshots.
I gotta say, though: this saturn emulator scene is still pretty shaky, isn't it? Some people apparently obtain satisfying, playable results - but not me! :blush:
SHINING FORCE 3:
here's the looooong-winded intro dialogue, which in addition is incomprehensible - and what's with the faces?: :yucky:
Pad plugin (smpc 1.1) works fine, and I could walk around the palace, apparently in full speed, with some anti-aliasing visible:
Here you see some of the more egregious graphical errors:
... After going through one door, it just jammed. Well, the graphical glitches were numerous anyway... Maybe someone has an idea on how to improve on this, like is there an emulator that runs this?
...
NIGHTS - INTO DREAMS:
this was a short experience - here's the last image I saw as it froze:
Overall, somewhat disappointing, but still pretty liberating, since I literally spent 3-4 continuous hours trying to get ANY game to work, on ANY emulator... Really quite a hassle. :ala:
...
My machine is AMD Athlon 3200+, with Radeon800GT. Speed really isn't an issue - more the basic emulation part!
